Description
**What steps did you take:**
On Windows
```
> git clone https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/carvel-imgpkg
> cd carvel-imgpkg
> imgpkg push -i image-windows -f test/e2e/assets/simple-app --yes
Succeded pushing sha sha256:73e65af5e889da98ece0bd471b2cd83baac574e19943108212ba0417ff8f03c2
```
On Linux
```
> git clone https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/carvel-imgpkg
> cd carvel-imgpkg
> imgpkg push -i image-linux -f test/e2e/assets/simple-app --yes
Succeded pushing sha sha256:ceef30cbdce418efde0284f446df9cec9e535adcd6e1010dad30ddae1dc9367b
> imgpkg pull -i image-linux -o /tmp/linux

**What happened:**
Image pushed resulted in a different sha (and different contents) across windows and linux
**What did you expect:**
The same image pushed. Or a way to differentiate between an image built for windows vs linux. Using an Image Index perhaps?
**Environment:**
- imgpkg version (use `imgpkg --version`): 0.19.0
- Docker registry used (e.g. `Docker HUB`):
- OS (e.g. from `/etc/os-release`): Windows 10

Research direction
Reproduce the Windows and Linux commands using test/e2e/assets/simple-app, then trace the imgpkg push and pull entry points that handle archive paths and image metadata. Done means the same content produces the same digest across both operating systems, or the supported platform-specific image/index behavior is clearly established and tested.
